Banana Nutella Bread

4 pretty black bananas greeted me this morning when I came into the kitchen. They smelled ripe.

Since my freezer is full, putting the bananas in there was no option.  Throwing them in the organic waste bin was not an option either.

My old banana nut bread recipe from my Alaska trip just needed 3 bananas.  I googled recipes for 4 bananas and found one from a German blog: zimt und zucker liebe

I added just some spices to it.

Recipe for a 25 cm loaftin:
250 g flour
2 tsp baking powder
Pinch of salt
400 g very ripe peeled bananas
50 g white sugar
50 g brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 large free range eggs
125 ml neutral oil
2 hands full chopped nuts ( almonds and cashews)
1/2 tsp allspice
1/2 tsp cinnamon
3 tbsp softened Nutella

Heat up the oven to 175 C.
Take a loaftin and add baking paper, 1 inch over the rim to take it out later.

Put the dry ingredients in a bowl.
Weigh 400 g bananas and add white and brown sugar to it.
Take a potato masher and give it a good workout.
Add eggs and oil.
Pour in the dry stuff and use a wooden spoon to mix.
In with the chopped nuts. Leave some cashews aside to top later.
Add allspice and cinnamon.


Pour half of the mix into the loaftin. Spread 1 tbsp nutella over it and stir with a cocktail stick.
Put the rest of the batter on top and add 2 tbsp of nutella. Stick sone whole nuts on top.
Bake for 50 - 60 min.
